Brenton Brenton's English Septuagint

RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909

1 And it came to pass when David and his men had entered Sekelac on the third day, that Amalec had made an incursion upon the south, and upon Sekelac, and smitten Sekelac, and burnt it with fire.

1 Y CUANDO David y los suyos vinieron á Siclag al tercer día, los de Amalec habían invadido el mediodía y á Siclag, y habían desolado á Siclag, y puéstola á fuego.

2 And as to the women and all things that were in it, great and small, they slew neither man nor woman, but carried them captives, and went on their way.

2 Y habíanse llevado cautivas á las mujeres que estaban en ella, desde el menor hasta el mayor; mas á nadie habían muerto, sino llevado, é ídose su camino.

3 And David and his men came into the city, and, behold, it was burnt with fire; and their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, were carried captive.

3 Vino pues David con los suyos á la ciudad, y he aquí que estaba quemada á fuego, y sus mujeres y sus hijos é hijas llevadas cautivas.

4 And David and his men lifted up their voice, and wept till there was no longer any power within them to weep.

4 Entonces David y la gente que con él estaba, alzaron su voz y lloraron, hasta que les faltaron las fuerzas para llorar.

5 And both the wives of David were carried captive, Achinaam the Jezraelitess, and Abigaia the wife of Nabal the Carmelite.

5 Las dos mujeres de David, Ahinoam Jezreelita y Abigail la [que fué] mujer de Nabal del Carmelo, también eran cautivas.

6 And David was greatly distressed, because the people spoke of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, each for his sons and his daughters: but David strengthened himself in the Lord his God.

6 Y David fué muy angustiado, porque el pueblo hablaba de apedrearlo; porque todo el pueblo estaba con ánimo amargo, cada uno por sus hijos y por sus hijas: mas David se esforzó en Jehová su Dios.

7 And David said to Abiathar the priest the son of Achimelech, Bring near the ephod.

7 Y dijo David al sacerdote Abiathar hijo de Ahimelech: Yo te ruego que me acerques el ephod. Y Abiathar acercó el ephod á David.

8 And David enquired of the Lord, saying, Shall I pursue after this troop? shall I overtake them? and he said to him, Pursue, for thou shalt surely overtake them, and thou shalt surely rescue [the captives].

8 Y David consultó á Jehová, diciendo: ¿Seguiré esta tropa? ¿podréla alcanzar? Y él le dijo: Síguela, que de cierto la alcanzarás, y sin falta librarás [la presa].

9 So David went, he and the six hundred men with him, and they come as far as the brook Bosor, and the superfluous ones stopped.

9 Partióse pues David, él y los seiscientos hombres que con él estaban, y vinieron hasta el torrente de Besor, donde se quedaron algunos.

10 And he pursued them with four hundred men; and there remained behind two hundred men, who tarried on the other side of the brook Bosor.

10 Y David siguió [el alcance] con cuatrocientos hombres; porque se quedaron atrás doscientos, que cansados no pudieron pasar el torrente de Besor.

11 And they find an Egyptian in the field, and they take him, and bring him to David; and they gave him bread and he ate, and they caused him to drink water.

11 Y hallaron en el campo un hombre Egipcio, el cual trajeron á David, y diéronle pan que comiese, y á beber agua;

12 And they gave him a piece of a cake of figs, and he ate, and his spirit was restored in him; for he had not eaten bread, and had not drunk water three days and three nights.

12 Diéronle también un pedazo de masa de higos secos, y dos hilos de pasas. Y luego que comió, volvió en él su espíritu; porque no había comido pan ni bebido agua en tres días y tres noches.

13 And David said to him, Whose art thou? and whence art thou? and the young man the Egyptian said, I am the servant of an Amalekite; and my master left me, because I was taken ill three days ago.

13 Y díjole David: ¿De quién eres tú? ¿y de dónde eres? Y respondió el mozo Egipcio: Yo soy siervo de un Amalecita, y dejóme mi amo hoy ha tres días, porque estaba enfermo;

14 And we made an incursion on the south of the Chelethite, and on the parts of Judea, and on the south of Chelub, and we burnt Sekelac with fire.

14 Pues hicimos una incursión á la parte del mediodía de Cerethi, y á Judá, y al mediodía de Caleb; y pusimos fuego á Siclag.

15 And David said to him, Wilt thou bring me down to this troop? and he said, Swear now to me by God, that thou wilt not kill me, and that thou wilt not deliver me into the hands of my master, and I will bring thee down upon this troop.

15 Y díjole David: ¿Me llevarás tú á esa tropa? Y él dijo: Hazme juramento por Dios que no me matarás, ni me entregarás en las manos de mi amo, y yo te llevaré á esa gente.

16 So he brought him down thither, and behold, they [were] scattered abroad upon the surface of the whole land, eating and drinking, and feasting by [reason of] all the great spoils which they had taken out of the land of the Philistines, and out of the land of Juda.

16 Llevólo pues: y he aquí que estaban derramados sobre la haz de toda aquella tierra, comiendo y bebiendo y haciendo fiesta, por toda aquella gran presa que habían tomado de la tierra de los Filisteos, y de la tierra de Judá.

17 And David came upon them, and smote them from the morning till the evening, and on the next day; and not one of them escaped, except four hundred young men, who were mounted on camels, and fled.

17 E hiriólos David desde aquella mañana hasta la tarde del día siguiente: y no escapó de ellos ninguno, sino cuatrocientos mancebos, que habían subido en camellos y huyeron.

18 And David recovered all that the Amalekites had taken, and he rescued both his wives.

18 Y libró David todo lo que los Amalecitas habían tomado: y asimismo libertó David á sus dos mujeres.

19 And nothing was wanting to them of great or small, either of the spoils, or the sons and daughters, or anything that they had taken of theirs; and David recovered all.

19 Y no les faltó cosa chica ni grande, así de hijos como de hijas, del robo, y de todas las cosas que les habían tomado: todo lo recobró David.

20 And he took all the flocks, and the herds, and led them away before the spoils: and it was said of these spoils, These [are] the spoils of David.

20 Tomó también David todas las ovejas y ganados mayores; y trayéndolo todo delante, decían: Esta es la presa de David.

21 And David comes to the two hundred men who were left behind that they should not follow after David, and he had caused them to remain by the brook of Bosor; and they came forth to meet David, and to meet his people with him: and David drew near to the people, and they asked him how he did.

21 Y vino David á los doscientos hombres que habían quedado cansados y no habían podido seguir á David, á los cuales habían hecho quedar en el torrente de Besor; y ellos salieron á recibir á David, y al pueblo que con él estaba. Y como David llegó á la gente, saludóles con paz.

22 Then every ill-disposed and bad man of the soldiers who had gone with David, answered and said, Because they did not pursue together with us, we will not give them of the spoils which we have recovered, only let each one lead away with him his wife and his children, and let them return.

22 Entonces todos los malos y perversos de entre los que habían ido con David, respondieron y dijeron: Pues que no fueron con nosotros, no les daremos de la presa que hemos quitado, sino á cada uno su mujer y sus hijos; los cuales tomen y se vayan.

23 And David said, Ye shall not do so, after the Lord has delivered [the enemy] to us, and guarded us, and the Lord has delivered into our hands the troop that came against us.

23 Y David dijo: No hagáis eso, hermanos míos, de lo que nos ha dado Jehová; el cual nos ha guardado, y ha entregado en nuestras manos la caterva que vino sobre nosotros.

24 And who will hearken to these your words? for they are not inferior to us; for according to the portion of him that went down to the battle, so shall be the portion of him that abides with the baggage; they shall share alike.

24 ¿Y quién os escuchará en este caso? porque igual parte ha de ser la de los que vienen á la batalla, y la de los que quedan con el bagaje: que partan juntamente.

25 And it came to pass from that day forward, that it became an ordinance and a custom in Israel until this day.

25 Y desde aquel día en adelante fué esto puesto por ley y ordenanza en Israel, hasta hoy.

26 And David came to Sekelac, and sent of the spoils to the elders of Juda, and to his friends, saying, Behold [some] of the spoils of the enemies of the Lord;

26 Y como David llegó á Siclag, envió de la presa á los ancianos de Judá, sus amigos, diciendo: He aquí una bendición para vosotros, de la presa de los enemigos de Jehová.

27 to those in Bæthsur, and to those in Rama of the south, and to those in Gethor.

27 A los que estaban en Beth-el, y en Ramoth al mediodía, y á los que estaban en Jattir;

28 And to those in Aroer, and to those in Ammadi, and to those in Saphi, and to those in Esthie,

28 Y á los que estaban en Aroer, y en Siphmoth, y á los que estaban en Esthemoa;

28a and to those in Geth, and to those in Cimath, and to those in Saphec, and to those in Themath,

29 and to those in Carmel, and to those in the cities of Jeremeel, and to those in the cities of the Kenezite;

29 Y á los que estaban en Rachâl, y á los que estaban en las ciudades de Jerameel, y á los que estaban en las ciudades del Cineo;

30 and to those in Jerimuth, and to those in Bersabee, and to those in Nombe,

30 Y á los que estaban en Horma, y á los que estaban en Chôrasán, y á los que estaban en Athach;

31 and to those in Chebron, and to all the places which David and his men had passed through.

31 Y á los que estaban en Hebrón, y en todos los lugares donde David había estado con los suyos.
